In his previous life, Qi Zhao was a textbook corrupt minister. He seized power, formed factions, eliminated rivals, and oppressed the young ruler. Though he rose to become Left Chancellor, he ended up abandoned by everyone. The emperor he had done everything to help ascend the throne couldn't tolerate him, the righteous ministers wanted to flay him alive, his allies wanted him dead, and even his close friends coveted his wife...
Only when his wife died in his arms did he realize that he had spent his whole life thinking himself clever, when it had all been a ridiculous mess.
Reborn, he resolved to live differently. Everything else could be dealt with, but... he had to keep an eye on his wife and make sure she didn't cheat on him.
Qi Zhao has been absent from court for three days, and rumors are swirling. In the end, everyone decides he must be plotting something nasty and getting ready to harm someone again. Only those in the know quietly poke their heads out: "I heard Chancellor Qi made eye contact with a palace maid from Xingqing Palace, so his wife has confined him at home and made him kneel on a washboard..."
This is a story about a corrupt minister who is reborn and wants to turn over a new leaf. But the world is corrupt, and there are always villains who force him to do bad things. And it's hard to change one's nature: once he starts scheming, he can't stop.

In her previous life, Yu Xianhe and Jiang Rui spent their whole lives loving and fighting each other. Jiang Rui treated her as his possession, imprisoned her in a palace, and forced her to spend every night with him. Xianhe saw Jiang Rui as her mortal enemy and joined forces with his former subordinates to try to poison him.
Reborn, Xianhe resolved to leave the past behind and build a brilliant future for herself. She fights to revive her mother's clan, protect her brother, and take on her stepmother and younger sister. As she grows stronger, she discovers that the accursed Jiang Rui has also been reborn.
Xianhe: Can I not even have a little fun anymore...?
After Jiang Rui is reborn, he discovers that his father, who used to criticize and thwart him at every turn, is suddenly terrified of him, while the shrewish young woman who once pursued him relentlessly now avoids him like the plague.
Something seems... off. Could he not be the only one who was reborn?

Theme:
Why does it feel like this ending is not as good as the previous life... In the previous life, my brother was an emperor on horseback, how could he not be able to defeat foreign enemies? Moreover, he defeated such a shrewd younger brother as Old Fox, and he worked hard to be a good emperor. How could he still decline? This doesn't make sense
The male and female protagonists are quite sweet, and it's this court battle... Except for the male protagonist having the upper hand at the beginning, he is basically being plotted and fell behind every step of the way. ?
I feel that the male protagonist is obviously not as good as Lu Chu in this life. Apart from taking advantage of the opportunity to take over the female protagonist, Lu Chu doesn't understand anything about court fights or anything like that.
This direction looks uncomfortable. It seems like nothing has changed after being reborn. The bad guys still have the power. What used to be a good brother-in-law has become like this. The hero and heroine can only admit defeat and leave.
It's a pity that Lu Chu found such a wife.
No, this ending, my God, why did you try every possible means to get your brother to that position?
One link after another, the male protagonist is in a situation and has no way to get out. He never expected that he could be plotted by the dog father after going through the previous life. Apart from his emotional enlightenment, his intelligence index cannot be reduced. Hey,
Um⊙?⊙This is the end. .
That's it. Just clock in and clock in and clock in every day.
??? The little emperor's country is going to lose?
